i take china as a great example. the chinese citizens even suspected of having a mental disability can be arbitrarily committed to institutions because chinese law offers almost no protections against involuntary civil commitment. moreover, beijing is considering a draft disability law that would permit indefinite involuntary detention, forced medication and forced labor of persons suspected of having a mental disability. obviously, this is in direct contravention of the cr pb. even though beijing has ratified it. i repeat that even though beijing has ratified the treaty. so while this convention has no mechanism, to force countries like china to respect disabled citizens, what it does do is allow leaders to falsely present themselves as forward leaning on disabled rights. just as they continue to run roughshod over such protections at home. supporters of this convention claim that ratifying it would allow our country to assume the moral high ground when it comes to addressing other gaps in disabilities rights. i wou
